After you’re done entering fishing contests for the fall, head over to your favorite online sportsbook to check out the sports betting odds for the World Series as the regular season is drawing to a close, and it should be no surprise as to who the favorites are.

Philadelphia is leading the way thanks to their all-world starting rotation led by Roy Halladay, Cliff Lee and Cole Hamels, while Roy Oswalt has to be the best No.4 in the majors. Boston is next with one of the top offenses in the league, but MLB betting players know that Josh Beckett and Jon Lester will have to carry the rotation unless a third can step up (John Lackey, where are you?). The New York Yankees are also in the mix, but outside of C.C. Sabathia, who can you trust in their rotation? Texas has a much better rotation than the Yankees and they can hang with the Bronx Bombers in terms of offense.

From the National League, don’t counter Milwaukee, who need Zack Greinke to step up and deliver in the postseason, but some are worried about his history with anxiety: can he handle the pressure of the playoffs? Then there is Atlanta, and the winner of the West as Arizona and the defending World Series champs from San Francisco battle it out. But when it comes down to it, a Philadelphia/Boston World Series should be the matchup at your favorite online betting sites.
